MTV Africa Music Awards (MAMA) 2014 Set For 7th June In Durban South Africa

The MTV Africa Music Awards are back. This comes after Alex Okosi, managing director and vice president of Viacom International Media Networks announcement at a press conference held in Durban South Africa.

The MAMAs will take place in Kwazulu - Natal at the Durban International Convention Centre on 7th June and will be broadcast on MTV Base (DStv 322) as well as MTV (DStv 130) hosting some of the most celebrated artists in Africa. The first ever MAMAs were held in 2008.

The MTV Africa Music Awards 2014 are open to all artists whose music videos have been accepted for airplay on MTV Base or MTV during the qualifying period of 20 March 2013 to 19 March 2014.

I'm glad this platform is back to recognise more African artists. Our music as a continent has evolved hence there can never be enough award ceremonies to honour African artists.

MTV Base seems to be in love with Durban. Next time, make a short left to Cape Town ;)
